A Message from the Principal~

The Winthrop School supports and enhances a student-centered environment where each student can and will learn to be a productive citizen. We envision a school community where all members - students, staff, and parents are continual learners. A student-centered environment means that the focus is on the student's experience in the school community. The student actively participates and engages in a variety of learning experiences. The school community supports the student as he/she explores, studies, experiments, discusses, debates, and wrestles with new ideas and concepts. All members of the school community accept, believe in, and work together to fulfill the vision.

We hope that this web site will contribute to our goal of communicating and sharing early and often with parents, friends, and community members.

Come visit us at Winthrop!
